The Oklahoma Department of Transportation says the lanes will be shifted on Interstate 44 between North Western Avenue and North Kelley Avenue Wednesday morning, and will most likely cause some confusion during rush hour.

This is all part of the Off Broadway Interstate 235 and I-44 interchange project.

All lanes of I-44 in between Kelly and Western have been shifted down to the south and will still be narrowed to two lanes.

ODOT says the shift will mostly likely cause some backup once rush hour hits Wednesday morning, as drivers adapt to the switch.

"Treat every work zone like it is a work in progress. Things are going to change every day, and this is a very big change," says Cody Boyd from ODOT.

ODOT is urging drivers to be safe and slow down especially with the on and off ramps to I-44 at Lincoln and I-235 due to the changes.
